Router/Modem Problem

[chloefiesta]

So i have 2 pc's and orgionally they accesses 1mb broadband via a Zoom ADSL modem connected to a hub and both worked fine fast internet etc..apart from my partner wasnt able to play a game with his mate over the internet due to firewall issue

so.... we bought a netgear modem/router all in one and plugged everything right and game works but internet is really really slow like seems slower than a dial up

is there any setting i can change or anything ive done wrong or reason the internet would be so slow, spoken to netgear and they are worse than useless, what can i do to speed up the internet connection

Run this program and it will tell you if your broadband speed is as should be expected.
